Apparently there is a problem with KDE and OpenGL screen savers. This causes the error "Failed to obtain license for feature: GLX" to be displayed. I can reproduce this error on NCD HMX, NCD MCX and NCD ThinStar 300s. I *cannot* reproduce this error by starting a KDE session via VNC. I think that there is a bug opened against KDE for this (http:\\bugs.kde.org/db/21/21055.html) but I cannot get to bugs.kde.org to confirm). I think that I can resolve this issue once I figure out how best to remove these problem screen savers.
Basically, any screen saver that ends in (GL) causes this problem.
